Ludovico Einaudi
 

Any Einaudi fans here? My wife got me hooked on his music. I’m not a huge classical music fan but Einaudi work resonates very well with me. :music:

Ludovico Maria Enrico Einaudi; born 23 November 1955) is an Italian pianist and composer. Trained at the Conservatorio Verdi in Milan, Einaudi began his career as a classical composer, later incorporating other styles and genres such as pop, rock, folk, and world music.

Einaudi composed the scores for a number of films and trailers, including This Is England, The Intouchables and I'm Still Here, the TV miniseries Doctor Zhivago, and Acquario in 1996, for which he won the Grolla d'oro for best soundtrack. He has also released a number of solo albums of piano and orchestra, notably I Giorni in 2001, Nightbook in 2009, and In a Time Lapse in 2013. Taranta Project, a collaborative album, was released in May 2015, and Elements was released in October 2015. On March 1, 2019, he announced a seven-part project named Seven Days Walking, which will be released over the course of seven months in 2019.

I found about him this past year . I have several of his albums tagged in Tidal/Roon.

Good choice.

He wrote some catchy tunes, which are not too hard to play on the piano.
My daughter does so at home, and it touches me.

I prefer him in his quieter music.
We saw him live a couple of years ago, and almost each song ended bombastically.
He's popular amongst the young generation.
There were a lot of youngsters yelling there! :D

I came across Einaudi via "The Intouchables" which is a fun and uplifting movie. I watched it a few times and the music stuck in my head, especially the songs Fly and Una Mattina. I discovered it was Einaudi's music, great melodies..

Very cool Bart. :thumbsup:

A customer introduced him to me. Been a while since I listened. Didn’t have TIDAL then.
